Moroso new Ultra 40 Race ignition wire sets are the most powerful and RFI/EMI-resistant wires available for racing today. Features of these 8.65mm wires include a KEVLAR® core that's four times stronger than Aramid cores, a class-leading 40 ohms of resistance per foot, nickel copper alloy conductors for superior spark energy transfer, an extra-thick EPDM layer for greater dielectric strength, high-temperature silicone boots that can withstand heat up to 600 degrees, and locking stainless steel plug terminals. Plus, their closely woven fiberglass, silicone-impregnated insulation provides up to 8,000 extra volts of protection, and their extra-thick diameter extends wire life by adding additional insulation against heat, chaffing, and contaminants.

We acquired a vintage mid-1990's Ford Thunderbird-bodied NASCAR Cup road course car with C-3 358 Nascar spec engine--SVO NASCAR heads and Yates tall valve covers incorporating valve spring spray Oilers and single male coil wire terminal on the fire wall as all those cars had with switchable twin coils and ignitionboxes inside with the driver. The car came to us with the twin magnetic Moroso blue 72202 billet race distributor that Moroso built for these cars and a set of blue sleeved/heat shrink-end Ultra 40 ignition wires installed. Will the Moroso 73626 Ultra 40 wire set be pre-assembled and a direct replacement? We see no identification part numbers on the wire set. Also what Moroso wire divider set fits these wires for the 358 W Ford engine? Also, I don't see a blue cap and rotor in the catalog that fits the Moroso 72202 distributor. Is the matching distributor cap and rotor available?

A:

Yes, # 73626 would be the correct plug wire set for that engine and that distributor. The set is pre-assembled. One end of the coil wire is intentionally left un-terminated, so you can cut it to the proper length and terminate. Boot, terminal and shrink sleeve are included in the kit.Use wire separator kit # 73160Replacement Part Numbers:Cap # 97855, these caps are now grey, we no longer offer blueRotor # 97848

Moroso Answer - December 14, 2018

A:

I have virtually the same car and engine combination that I installed the pre-assembled Ultra 40 wire set on. The wires did need to route over the taller valve covers so valve adjustments require removing the wires from the plugs. I used wire separators to bundle the wires across the valve covers and ceramic sleeves on all the plug ends due to the proximity of the header pipes. The only problem you might have is that the coil wire provided (you cut and install one end) might not reach the firewall. My coil is mounted adjacent to the distributor on the strut that runs across from the frame rails like a Monte Carlo bar. Hope this helps, Mike T.
